"I have updated" vs "I have update"

The correct phrase is 'I have updated.' The verb 'update' needs to be in the past participle form 'updated' when used with the auxiliary verb 'have.' 'I have update' is incorrect as 'update' should be 'updated' to match the present perfect tense.

Last Updated: March 19, 2024

I have updated

This is correct

Use this phrase when talking about something that you have made current.
